Ayodele couldn't believe his ears."What do you mean by it was your fault? You are the victim here," Ayodele said with anger lacing his voice.Tanya was amused yet touched that he was angry on her behalf."No, I meant that was what he said. That it was my fault that he hooked up with someone else," she said simply."The bastard," Ayodele said in anger."Exactly my sentiment. He wasn't even ashamed or repentant of what he did. I can still picture his smug face as he calmly covered himself and invited me to talk it out like the adults that we are," She shook her head as she recollected."And your friend?" Ayodele said softly to bring her out of her thoughts as he could already see her face getting gloomy."Ern, who?" She asked as he got her attention."Your so-called friend, what was her reaction?" Ayodele asked again."Oh, Vivian? No idea. I couldn't even listen to anything. All I could hear was this rushing sound in my ears like I was in the middle of the ocean. Believe me, I had a kin

“What happened then? What happened? ” Tanya asked anxiously, standing up from the bed to face him.Ayodele smiled at her eagerness then the smile waned as he remembered how he had almost died. He had practically brushed death’s door.“I froze for a moment, stupidly thinking that they would probably not see me if I stayed silent where I was,” he shook his head as he remembered “What shock could do to a man. The next moment I realised the foolishness of that thought as the spot I was hiding was an open space so I quickly removed my palm slippers and started tiptoeing back. I had just rounded the corner that led to the garage when they got to the spot where I had been hiding. Then I heard their voices,” he recalled." I told you that nobody was there, why is it that you never listen?” One of them said.“Spare me the bullshit, man. I am sure that I heard something. Are you telling me now that I don’t know what I am saying?” The other one shouted at him.Ayodele paced back and forth as his

“You are joking,” Ayodele said, half hoping he was right and she was just pranking him.“No buddy, I am not!” Tanya replied, leaping up with renewed energy.“Yeah, right, who crashes their own wedding?” He asked incredulously.“This babe here!” Tanya replied nonchalantly.“Let me get you right here before my head explodes. You intend to go ahead with the wedding. I mean a wedding with a guy who cheated on you with your friend a day before your big day?”“Tanya’s smile dimmed but then she shrugged.She sighed and looked around before facing him.“You see that phone over there?” She pointed at where she had dropped the phone on the headboard.He nodded.“The only reason why this room had not been filled with back-to-back ringing is because that phone has been switched off. The moment I put it on now, tons of people would be calling starting with my mother, my age…… Lots of people, my daughter….”“You have a daughter?” Ayodele asked in surprise.“Yeah, adopted. The love of my life she is,

Tanya had no idea what had come over her but the moment the idea had formed in her head, she knew she wasn’t letting go of it. Not now that she had blurted it out.The moment she had said it out to him, she knew she was bent on it. Also who better to have this adventure with than this man with whom she had had many firsts in the space of hours?She had had her first car chase and gunshot spree with him. Not something she would ever want to happen again but there had been that.She had had her first instant chemistry and feverish attraction with him. Most who knew her would call her cool, calm, and collected while her haters simply call her ice queen.None of them, both friends and foes alike, would believe that Tanya Darlington had the hots for anyone. Yeah, that is the word. Who could have thought?He also was the first person she had had multiple orgasms with.Though in what seemed like a lifetime ago, she had this boy she fancied herself in love with.He had been the first person wh

“An actress? She is an actress? Which means she is famous and everything. The type that goes to glamour parlours, and events and have almost everything about their lives on the internet,” Ayodele thought as he remembered his sister teasing him the other day that the world might be coming to an end and he wouldn’t know about it as he was barely online.She had said this after he didn’t check a message she sent him on W******p for days.He hardly watches movies and doesn’t listen to or read gossip blogs. He would have known about her, wouldn’t he?He looked at her and her agent who had been busy with details since she dropped that bombshell on him, she had looked at him like he had ten heads when she realised that he had no idea who Tanya was.“Who doesn’t know Tanya?” She had said in shock then turned to the lady in question asking “Pumpkin, where did you get this guy from? The caves?” And shrugged when Tanya had told her to be nice.Since then they had been dealing with details upon de
